Chunky Croissant Hinged Hoop Earrings in 18K Gold

Chunky Croissant Hinged Hoop Earrings in 18K Gold

Big hoops fail at the clasp, never the concept. This one clicks closed — a ridged gold dome that stays shut until you decide otherwise.

I loved these earrings at first. I did notice the hinge was a little loose but didn’t want to deal with the exchange cause I loved them so much and they were a Christmas gift. Well after wearing only two times the one earrings hinge that was loose became worse. I know I should’ve handled it when I received it. When I reached out to the seller their reply was: How did this happen? They never replied again and I had to file a claim with Etsy. They weren’t super expensive but expensive enough. I thank Etsy not the seller for refunding our money. The seller was rude and the quality of the earring was meh for the price. Buyer beware!!!!

The box is gorgeous and minimal, it comes with the cutest little bag you’ve ever seen, and they are in my ears at this very moment since I got them yesterday for my birthday.
Ok; perfect size, they are wide where they aren’t too minimal and you can dress them up or down. The gold is the perfect shade too. It isn’t tacky, super yellow/bronze gold. It’s nuanced light gold. Like blonde gold. I love them, buy them, trust me, I’m picky.

Item’s not the same size or shape as the one in the photo.. in real life it’s rounder and smaller. It came tarnished in the place where it’s stamped

I really love this earring, gorgeous and perfect fit for my ears, I really want to give 5 stars, but I am little bit disappointed because I found there is a dent on one of the earring.

Tony was extremely helpful in exchanging the first pair of these earrings that I ordered. They arrived damaged, but he was very understanding and sent me a new pair. These earrings are very delicate and lightweight, but I love the style and they are so hard to find. Thank you Tony! The second pair arrived in good condition!

Cute item, just wasn't for me after all. Shipping was fast, customer service was excellent. Would purchase from this seller again.

I really like these earrings. I’m just a little concerned because one doesn’t always click securely to stay closed. It does seem to be working in, though, and so far so good. I did not rate customer service because I have had no need to contacts the seller.

I bought these earrings supposing them to be 18K Gold plated, 5 times thicker than regular plating. It took many days to acclimate to the metal surface and design of the post. They are pretty. I like them.

Questions, answered

Everything people ask before they buy this earring.

What are huggie earrings?
Small hoops that hug the earlobe — usually 8 to 14 millimetres across — with a hinge at the back that clicks shut, so there is no butterfly back to lose and no gap for a pillow to catch. They are the hoop you never take out: small enough to sleep in and sit under headphones, substantial enough to read as jewelry. Bigger hoops are an outfit; huggies are a habit.

How do I open and close hinged huggie hoops?
Hold the hoop by the sides, find the tiny notch at the back opposite the post, and swing the post away from the hoop — it hinges open like a door, about 45 degrees, without force. Thread the post through the piercing, then swing it back until you feel the click. Do not pull the two halves apart as if they were a key ring; the hinge is on one side only. If it feels stiff the first few times, that is the clasp being new, not wrong — it loosens to a clean click within a week.

Is this earring real gold?
Yes — it is 18K gold vermeil: a thick layer of real 18K gold bonded over solid 925 sterling silver. Vermeil is an FTC-defined standard, not a marketing word, and ours uses a gold layer at least five times thicker than standard plating. Under it is sterling silver, which is hypoallergenic and worth something on its own. You can also choose the Prestige Gold option (the same 18K gold over a brass core) if you want the look for less and wear it less often. Every vermeil piece is covered by our 2-year warranty.

Can I sleep in huggie hoops?
Yes. A huggie sits flat against the lobe with a closed hinge, so there is nothing to snag a pillow and nothing to fall out — most women who own one pair never take them off. The only caution is material: sleep in 18K gold vermeil, stainless steel or solid gold (all hypoallergenic, all on this page); the hoops that cause sore ears overnight are the cheap brass ones.

What size hoop earrings should I get?
8–12 mm is a huggie (tight to the lobe, for sleeping and daily wear); 15–25 mm is a small hoop (the everyday size that reads from across a table); 30–40 mm is a medium hoop (the outfit size, stops above the jaw); 50 mm and up is a statement. If you have never worn hoops, start at 15–20 mm. If you are buying for a second piercing, go one size smaller than the first. The millimetre measurement on every product page is the outside diameter.

Can I shower or sleep in my gold vermeil earring?
Sleep in it, yes. Shower in it, no. Water, sweat, perfume and hairspray are what age gold vermeil fastest, so the rule is simple: jewelry goes on last and comes off before the shower, the pool or the gym. Put it on after lotion and perfume have dried. When it is off, keep it in the pouch it came in — the pouch is anti-tarnish, not decoration. To clean it, a soft dry cloth; never jewelry dip or anything abrasive, which strips the gold. Treated this way, vermeil keeps its colour for years, which is exactly why we can put a 2-year warranty behind it.

Are these hoops hypoallergenic — why do some hoops hurt my ears?
Yes. The metal touching your piercing is sterling silver under the 18K gold vermeil, 316L surgical stainless steel, or solid 14K gold depending on the tier — the same metals piercing studios use, none containing nickel. Hoops that hurt, itch or turn the lobe red are almost always brass or nickel alloy under a thin plating; once the plating wears, the skin is touching the alloy. If your ears react to everything, choose vermeil (silver base) or solid gold.

Can I wear these hoops in a second piercing or cartilage?
Lobe piercings, yes, all of them. For a second or third lobe hole choose a huggie or a small hoop one size down from your first. For cartilage (helix), a hinged huggie in the smallest size works on a fully healed piercing — the hinge closes in a circle, which suits the curve of the ear — but the post is the standard lobe gauge, so do not use one in a fresh or tight cartilage piercing. Our flat-back studs are the safer choice there.

How fast does this earring ship?
Ready-to-ship pieces leave our Miami studio within 24 hours on business days, with free standard USPS shipping on every US order — typically 2 to 4 business days door to door. Expedited shipping is available at checkout for ready-to-ship items. You get a tracking number by email when it is on its way, and it arrives in our signature gift box with a suede pouch, so if it is a gift you are already done. We ship worldwide; international delivery runs 5 to 14 business days depending on the destination, and any customs duties are the buyer's.

Are these earrings good for sensitive ears?
Yes. The part that touches your piercing is sterling silver (under 18K gold vermeil), 316L surgical steel, or solid 14K gold depending on the tier you choose — all three are nickel-safe and the same metals piercing studios use for fresh piercings. The reaction most people blame on "gold earrings" is actually nickel or brass in cheap posts, and there is none in ours. If your ears are very reactive, choose the 18K gold vermeil or solid gold option and wipe the posts with a little rubbing alcohol before the first wear.
